If running a router behind a router, don't forget to set different subnets! Eg,
if the "upstream" router is at 192.168.1.1, then downstream routers should be
at 192.168.2.1 (or similar).

To get lsusb and lspci, install the usbutils and pciutils packages.

To bring up new adapters (eg, USB or miniPCI), process is to search
wikidevi.com to find the drivers which support either the exact device or
chipset, then update opkg and grep output of "opkg list" for the OpenWRT kernal
package for those drivers.

Use the ``sysupgrade`` images when upgrading an existing OpenWrt-based
installation, either via the LuCI web interface or the command line (wget). Use
the ``factory`` image when installing OpenWrt through the original firmware's
web interface or using the tftp netboot method.
